AFTERMARKET CONTINENTAL KIT SPARE TIRE CARRIERS H&P P/N 02010001/02044500 AND ARE DESIGNED TO BE USED ON CLASS B MOTORHOMES ROADTREK 170, 190 AND 210 MODELS, BUILT ON CHEVROLET 2500/3500 VAN CHASSIS. DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE SPARE TIRE CARRIER, VIBRATION/STRESS CAN FATIGUE THE BRACKET AND LEAD TO FRACTURE.
IF THE BRAKET BREAKS, CONTINUOUS VIBRATION MAY CAUSE THE CARRIER TO SLOWLY SLIDE OUT OF THE TRAILER HITCH CROSSTUBE AND FALL ON THE ROAD, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH.
HOME & PARK WILL NOTIFY ITS CUSTOMERS AND REPAIR THE CARRIES BY SOLIDLY WELDING THEM TO THE CROSSTUBE.
ALSO, CUSTOMERS CAN CONTACT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION'S AUTO SAFETY HOTLINE AT 1-888-DASH-2-DOT '1-888-327-4236'.
